Clearance Rack, Cardztv Stamps, and an Easter Card
I just have so much to say today!! Normally I hardly ever post, but I just want to make sure that I cover everything today! 2 things. First thing's first, Stampin' Up has added more items to their Clearance Rack!! Lots of goodies from the Holiday Mini from 2011, including accessories and lots of DSP. Sadly there's no spice cake, but oh well. They also have some of the items from SAB last year as well.
Click HERE to go to the clearance rack and get your hands on some fabulous products!! My demonstrator Michele would be more than happy to help you get those :)
http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/michelebarker/
The next item of news today is that Mary Grubbs has released several new sets of her Cardztv Stamps! There are 4 new sets, with another one on the way soon as well! They are "It's All About You," "Mother's Day," "Happy Days," and "Ticket Talk 2." I have already ordered a couple of her new sets, as well as some old sets that I really like. I'm super excited to get them in this week and start playing! Though Andy and I will probably be in PA when they come :(
Anyway, the link to her blog is
http://www.cardztv.blogspot.com/
and you can order her stamps from
http://www.cardztvstamps.blogspot.com/
She just has the most fabulous ideas, and she truly inspires me every day. She ALWAYS posts videos of her cards!! I look for them every day, and can't wait for the next one each day :) So I really hope you go over and check her out and give her stamps a chance.
And to show you how much she inspires me, I'm going to share a card that I copied from her and then changed a little to make it my own.
Isn't this just the cutest card!!!
Here is the link to Mary's video tutorial: http://www.cardztv.blogspot.com/2012/03/some-bunny-loves-you.html
Here are the supplies:
Cardstock: All the colored cardstock on the layers came from a DCWV paper stack called The Basics. It's all the same paper, just in every color. There's solids and a bunch of cute prints like polka dots, gingham, argyle, and stripes. I also used Whisper White from SU as my card base.
Stamp: Easter Punnies (Cardztv), Peachy Keen Animal Faces, Tea Dye Distress Ink
Ink: Basic Black (SU)
Ribbon: A blue satin ribbon from Walmart.
Cricut Cartridges: Doodlecharms (bunny) and Paperdoll Dress Up (fence and grass)
Cutout cardstock: Certainly Celery, Soft Suede, Whisper White
Punches: Boho Blossoms (SU), Itty Bitty Bits (SU), 1/2 inch circle punch (popped up on dimensionals to make it look like she's peeking over the fence)
Stampin' Up Basic Rhinestones
Buttons: Hawaiian Shores (or it could be Blueberry Sky?), Sweet Blush, Raspberry Fizz (all PTI)
Stampin' Up Watercolor Wonder crayons: (to highlight the cheeks) Pretty in Pink
Ok, that's all for now. Sorry for posting so much today!

Fashionista Birthday Card
Hello everyone!
This is about a week late, but last week we had grades due, so I was spending a lot of my time grading papers. Also, Tuesday was my birthday!!! Happy Birthday me :) I'm a quarter of a century old now... Lol, still a youngin, but feeling old (wish I could go back to college when times were easier!) I got a lot of nice craft stuff for my birthday! I got the following!
My Pink Stamper Stamp sets:
Cricut
I made off pretty good huh!!
Anyway, I had a little time to craft this weekend, but I spent most of it trying to finish The Hunger Games. I got the book on Thursday, and I've got about 100 pages left. Andy and I went to see the movie on Saturday, and I really liked it! Now I just need to finish the book even though I know what is going to happen. I bought the second one yesterday, so I'll have that when I'm done.
Also, this week Michele came over and crafted with me!! I was so excited for her to come over!!! She worked on covering card keeper boxes from the Stampin' Up Holiday Mini, and I worked on thank you cards for my mom. She is doing the 3 day walk for breast cancers, so I'm making thank you cards she can send to the people who donate. I'll made a video and show you. I've only got about 9 done, but I've got parts of more done. I ran out of ribbon so I had to get more. I only got 2 done on Wednesday though because my Gypsy had to update my cricut :( So that took a bit of time. I did the rest last night. I also made an Easter card which I hope to film this week and get up. I'll be making some more of that Easter card and hopefully 1 more design so I can get them out by tomorrow or Wednesday... I also think I'm going to come up with an idea for a card for my students to make... The ones who earn it that is. I told them they needed to earn 22 beads this week by Thursday to have enough to make the card. I'm sure I'll only have about half of my students, if that, making a card. Oh well. They'll learn when the kids who like to push my buttons aren't doing the activity and doing work instead.
Anyway, a little over a week ago, my coworker asked me to make a card for her mom's birthday. She told me her mom likes sunflowers and shopping. I decided to go with the shopping theme and see what I could come up with. Here is a video for the card I came up with.

The funny thing is, I went to a card class with my demonstrator Michele the same day, and we made a birthday card using the sunflower background stamp.
She ended up buying both of them from me, and gave me $10 for them!! That was my first card sale ever!! I've given some to people before, but I've never had anyone actually buy them! Yay :) Everyone keeps telling me to sell them, but I feel bad charging people for them, or I just don't know who to sell them to. I might ask my hair dresser if I can display some cards at her house to see if any of her clients would like to buy any. It's just about getting out there and seeing who you know.
Anyway, I've got some other news, but this post is long enough, so I'll put it in another post.

Turkey Card
Hi all!!!
I've got another card for you :) Here's the video I took of my Turkey card for Thanksgiving. Yes, Thanksgiving is over, but I don't care. I still wanted to show you the card because I'm proud of it!
Anyway, I had a really awful day at work today. My students acted out so much today, and it made me feel like I was a terrible teacher... I hope it was just because it was the day after a break.... Hopefully they will be better tomorrow... Second, the last tadpole that I had left looked really sick today... He was upside down when I got to school this morning, but when I looked closed, he was still breathing... My dad came and helped me completely change out all of the water and wash out the tank, and I had hoped that that would help him... but he still looks sickly... I don't think he'll last the night :( They are sending some new ones, but I feel so bad for this little guy... And Andy also texted me while I was feeling like I was going to cry because my day was so bad, and said he was going to hang out with his friends tonight. I'm not upset about that, it's good for him to hang out with them, but I was just so looking forward to seeing him since he always makes my day better... I guess things don't always go as you want them...
Maybe I'll get a chance to make a new card tonight, and that will at least make me feel better... I've got to start on my lesson plans though, so we'll see.
Anyway, on to the video. I hope you like this one. It's a short one, not a long tutorial.

Thanksgiving Card
Hi everyone!!
My kids are at dance and music, so I thought this would be a good time to post. I filmed a video last night and it finally uploaded this morning, so I wanted to post it here.
This is a video of a really cute Thanksgiving card that I made last week! All the paper I used was Stampin' Up (the regals and neutrals collection), except for the Bazzil white. I also used Cardztv Stamps (www.cardztv.blogspot.com) and a set of Close to My Heart stamps. The only Cricut cartridge I used was the Art Philosophy cartridge.
Anyway, here's my video. I hope you enjoy it!! Sorry I'm so stuffed up :( I feel much better today ^_^
